Setting Server Restrictions
You can set the following server restrictions:
*Restrict server availability to specified days of the week.
*Restrict particular actions for files that match a specified pattern. For example, you can restrict users from uploading files that end with “exe”.
*Restrict access to subfolders in the virtual file system that match a specified pattern.
* To set server restrictions
1. In My webMethods: Administration > Integration > Managed File Transfer > Server Management.
2. Select the server instance. For details, see Selecting the Instance to Work With.
3. Click the Restrictions tab.
4. If you want to allow connections to the server only on particular days, select the appropriate check box next to the days of the week in the Active Time Window section.
Note: The days and times are represented in the time zone of the server.
5. If you want to restrict particular operations for certain files, do the following in the Patterns list in the File Name Filters section:
a. Click the button.
b. From the Command list, select an operation to restrict (Rename, Listing, Download, or Upload).
c. From the Filter Type list, select a filter type (Ends with, Starts with, or Contains).
d. In the File Name box, type the portion of the file name that the Filter Type criterion should evaluate (for example, “exe”).
Note: Any characters except wildcard characters or regular expressions are permitted. ActiveTransfer Server treats those characters as part of the file name.
e. To add more file name filters, click the button. To delete a file name filter, select the filter and click the button.
6. If you want to restrict access to specific folders in the virtual file system, do the following in the Block Paths Matching These Patterns area of the File Name Filters section:

b. Type the virtual file system path you want to block in the new row.
Note: You can specify a regular expression pattern. You can also use simple pattern matching by preceding the pattern with the tilde (~) character. For example, to deny user access to the folder /system/bin, you would type: ~/system/bin/*
c. To add more block paths, click the button,. To delete a path, select the path and click the button.
